she has passed away. and now, nearly 100 inches of snow in crestline and it has caused roofs to collapse, and trees snapping, and now residents are in crestline and so, are there still folks who are isolated and can t get what they need? yes, for days, and more than ten days, and they are so frustrated, because they are dealing with the walls of snow, and this is what the authorities are dealing with trying to clear the roads. this is what they are doing. so they are clearing the main roads, and what we have been told is that 80% of the county roads have been clear. i also want to show you a view from above where we are right
this morning, if you can, avoid the roadways, especially outside of the major metropolitan areas. that s where the bulk of the precipitation is actually going fuel today. we could potentially see a quarter to maybe some localized areas of up to half an inch. and that obviously has ramifications on trees snapping, limbs coming down and taking down power lines, not to mention the treacherous travel on the roadways. lighting up like a christmas tree on our radar. plenty to dissect for you. but the pink, that s a rain/snow mix. we ll call that snain, a n non-meteorological term. so central pennsylvania, southern new york, that s the area that s getting hit hardest at the moment. we have winter weather advisories, as kristie discussed, 30 million americans. but none of that includes washington, philadelphia, or washington, d.c. in fact, we believe that the bulk of the freezing rain potential will be just outside of that i-95 corridor.
any time soon. there have been times in the brown s history when i think she would have been a better quarterback. but not this year. how are you, ali velshi? i m well, thank you. you have yourself a great afternoon and a good weekend. and be careful in the storm. it s friday, august 30th. extremely dangerous hurricane dorian poses a significant threat. that s the national hurricane center s latest advisory as dorian, which is now a category 3 hurricane gains strength and moves slowly toward the northwestern bahamas and then the entire state of florida. potentially hitting florida as a category 4 when it makes landfall somewhere between the florida keys and southern georgia. just to help you picture what all of these categories look like, in a category 1 hurricane, wind speeds range from 74 to 95 miles per hour causing some damage like a home s roof, large tree branches snapping. category 2 wind speeds are 96 to 110 miles an hour causing extensive damage. trees snapping, uprootin
irma s first u.s. landfall, we know that it was just hours later, irma slammed ashore again, making landfall in marco island and plowing through na e naples, where we were, live on the air. it hit more than 140 miles per hour. tonight, what we witnessed at daybreak today when we could finally see what irma had done. tonight, the new images from naples, florida. under water. entire neighborhoods swallowed by the storm. this home s roof, gone. the right side collapsed. it was here that hurricane irma hit with the highest wind gust reported in florida. 142 miles per hour, as we were on the air. look at this. this is just incredible. over our shoulder here. we are blocked by two sort of concrete barriers, which is the only reason we re able to talk, because if we were another five feet this way, we d be caught in this. trees snapping. pieces of the roof above us turning into projectiles. debris flying through the air. after sustained wind speeds over 100 miles per hour, suddenly, we were i
it s coming very quickly along the water which is 3.1 miles east of us, but where we are inland, we are showing you the damage, the terracotta flying off roofs and trees and branches flying. it s actually difficult to walk in this kind of wind with the gust as they ve got leading right now it looks like debris but they are very, very sharp, very, very heavy. we are trying not to flattened our tires but we are trying to have everyone have a look as far as the eye can possibly see, shep. trees snapping, debris flying everywhere like a hailstorm of palm trees. hep shep and it s going to get worst before it gets better. once the storm has been blowing in one direction, the winds have for so long, the winds shift and so often tree that is were blown in one direction end up blowing
